Kalista is the scaling carry a Protect shell exists to keep alive. Enough Attack and Catch sits in the kit to fight front-to-back when the enemy forces it. Passive (Martial Poise) grants a repositioning dash after every basic attack or ability cast, scaling with boots tier — mobility-based kiting, not durability.

Kit quirks

Passive (Martial Poise) grants a repositioning dash after every basic attack or ability cast, scaling with boots tier — mobility-based kiting, not durability
R (Fate's Call) protects an ally (bound Oathsworn) with invulnerability/untargetability and a return dash, but provides Kalista herself no defensive benefit
Rend (E) consumes stacked spears for damage/slow and refunds cooldown/mana on kill; Pierce (Q) can pass through and transfer Rend stacks on a kill
R (Fate's Call) makes the bound ally fully invulnerable and untargetable for its whole 4-second duration, which blocks everything — including Ignite ticks, Brand's passive reapplying, and even a well-timed Karthus ultimate.
